As part of our todo in the code, we want to use the unique user IDs
instead of emails when processing the results of subscribing users to a
channel. These changes apply those changes and streamlines the use of IDs.
This param allows clients to specify how much presence history they want
to fetch. Previously, the server always returned 14 days of history.
With the recent migration of the presence API to the much more efficient
system relying on incremental fetches via the last_update_id param added
in #29999, we can now afford to provide much more history to clients
that request it - as all that historical data will only be fetched once.
There are three endpoints involved:
- `/register` - this is the main useful endpoint for this, used by API
clients to fetch initial data and register an events queue. Clients can
pass the `presence_history_limit_days` param here.
- `/users/me/presence` - this endpoint is currently used by clients to
update their presence status and fetch incremental data, making the new
functionality not particularly useful here. However, we still add the
new `history_limit_days` param here, in case in the future clients
transition to using this also for the initial presence data fetch.
- `/` - used when opening the webapp. Naturally, params aren't passed
here, so the server just assumes a value from
`settings.PRESENCE_HISTORY_LIMIT_DAYS_FOR_WEB_APP` and returns
information about this default value in page_params.
Currently, we want to ask users if they would like to delete their
attachments after they have removed the attachments while editing. These
changes are preparatory changes on the backend to return a list of removed
attachments after the user has removed attachments while editing.
Fixes part of #25525.
This commit removes the 'prev_rendered_content_version'
field from:
* the 'edit_history' object within message objects in the
API response of `GET /messages`, `GET /messages/{message_id}`
and `POST /zulip-outgoing-webhook`.
* the 'update_message' event type
as it is an internal server implementation detail not used
by any client.
Note: The field is still stored in the 'edit_history' column
of the 'Message' table as it will be helpful when making
major changes to the markup rendering process.
On the server-side, the implementation of the "near" operator is a
noop. Clients should instead use the "anchor" parameter to express
the "near" operator in a search box or URL fragment.
This commit make changes in code to include can_manage_group
field to UserGroup objects passed with response of various endpoints
including "/register" endpoint and also in the group object
send with user group creation event.
The 'tutorial_status' field on 'UserProfile' model is
no longer used to show onboarding tutorial.
This commit removes the 'tutorial_status' field,
'POST users/me/tutorial_status' endpoint, and
'needs_tutorial' parameter in 'page_params'.
Fixes part of zulip#30043.
Note that the link in zulip_update_announcements.py is not updated

This commit removes create_web_public_stream_policy setting
since web-public channel creation permissions are now
handled by group-based setting.
We still pass "realm_create_web_public_stream_policy" in
"/register" response though for older clients with its
value being set depending on the value of group based
setting. If we cannot set its value to an appropriate enum
corresponding to the group setting, then we set it to
"Admins and moderators" considering that server will not
allow the users without permissions to create web-public
channels but the client can make sure that UI is
available to the users who have permission.
Modern browsers respect the EXIF orientation information of images,
applying rotation and/or mirroring as specified in those tags. The
the `width="..."` and `height="..."` tags are to size the image
_after_ applying those orientation transformations.
The `.width` and `.height` properties of libvips' images are _before_
any transformations are applied. Since we intend to use these to hint
to rendering clients the size that the image should be _rendered at_,
change to storing (and providing to clients) the dimensions of the
rendered image, not the stored bytes.
This allows clients to potentially lay out the thumbnails more
intelligently, or to provide a better "progressive-load" experience
when enlarging the thumbnail.
Previously animated images were automatically played in the
message feed of the web app.
Now that we have still thumbnails available for them, we can add a new
personal setting, "web_animate_image_previews", which controls how the
animated images would be played in the web app message feed -- always
played, on hover, or only in the image viewer.
Fixes#31016.
Adds a header to the section of changes notes about new and
deprecated narrow filters, so that it's easier to directly
link to the relevant content in the construct a narrow article

Adds server and web app support for processing the new `with`
search operator.

In a2ef1d7e93, we made changes so
that when you send a message, your view jumps to the conversation
where you sent it.
For some users it was an improvement, few reported that it
disrupts their workflows.
This prep commit adds a setting which will be used to allow users
to decide whether to automatically go to conversation where they
sent a message.
Previously, when a referrer's invitation to Zulip was accepted,
they got a notification from notification-bot indicating
their invitation has been accepted.
This commit adds an option for referrer to decide
whether he wants to receive the direct notification
from the notification-bot.
Fixes: #20398
This commit removes create_private_stream_policy setting as
we now use new group based setting.
The "/register" response includes realm_create_private_stream_policy
field to return a value representing superset of users who have the
permission to create private channels, as older clients still expect
this field.
Updates the main description of the API error handling article so
that the `code` key in the error reponse is more accurate.
Adds a bullet point to the API changelog for feature level 76 about
the `code` key being consistently in all error responses. This is
based on commit 8b9011dff8, which completed the migration to
JsonableError, at which point the API feature level was already
set to 75 and not yet set to 76.
Also, revises the other error related feature level 76 entries in
the API changelog.
Adds a header for the common, shared error responses that are
documented on the error handling page, and updates those error
descriptions to include information about any extra fields and to
end with any changes notes.

Fixes#27309.
Updates all the https://chat.zulip.org/#narrow/stream/ links in the
docs and comments to use the new /channel/ path. All these links are
for documentation/reference purposes only and thus, can be bulk-updated.
This commit is a part of the effort to rename stream to channel.
This commit removes create_public_stream_policy setting
since public channel creation permissions are now handled
by group-based setting.
We still pass "realm_create_public_stream_policy" in
"/register" response though for older clients with its
value being set depending on the value of group based
setting. If we cannot set its value to an appropriate
enum corresponding to the group setting, then we set
it to "Members only" considering that server will not
allow the users without permissions to create public
channels but the client can make sure that UI is
available to the users who have permission.
This commit adds a server level setting which controls whether the setting
can be set to anonymous user groups. We only allow it in the tests for
now because the UI can only handle named user groups.
The documentation Creates a shared UserStatus schema that's used for
the return value of this new endpoint and for the existing user_status
objects returned by the register queue endpoint.

Updates `.md` files in api_docs/ to use "stream" instead of "channel"
for descriptive text, with the exception of the API changelog file.
Part of stream to channel rename project.
This commit relocates all the scripts in the tools directory which
are used for auto-generating screenshots to the new
tools/screenshots directory to avoid cluttering the tools/ root.
This commit adds include_realm_default_subscriptions parameter
to the invite endpoints and the corresponding field in
PreregistrationUser and MultiuseInvite objects. This field will
be used to subscribe the new users to the default streams at the
time of account creation and not to the streams that were default
when sending the invite.
This commit changes the code to subscribe the invited user to default
streams even if the user who invited the new user was not allowed to
subscribe others to streams.
This commit adds support to pass object containing both old and new
values of the can_mention_group setting, as well as detailed API
documentation for this part of the API system.

The naming `uri` is deprecated while `url` should be used in order to
satisfy URL standards. For this reason, four endpoints are affected:
* The response content of three endpoints `/server_settings`,
`/register` and `/realm` that contain a field `realm_uri` is
changed to `realm_url`.
* In one of the common fields for all mobile push notifications payloads,
`realm_url` field is now added as an alias to `realm_uri`.
For backwards compatibility, we keep the field `realm_uri` and add
an alias `realm_url`.

We now "first_message_id" of the stream on the deletion of the first
message that was sent to it. This results in 1 extra query when any
stream message is deleted and 3 extra queries when the first message
sent to any stream is deleted.

Updates the API changelog entry and changes notes for feature level
249 to match other API updates to narrow filters, and links to the
help center article on emoji reactions in these notes.
Feature level 249 changes were originally in commit c3408b56f0.
Updates the API changelog entries and changes notes for feature
levels 233 and 230, which both are related to the onboarding
steps (hotspots and one-time notices) updates.
Feature level 233 was originally documented in commit 83bd9955e3
and ac8af3d6de.
Feature level 230 was originally documented in commit 8d633cc36.
Updates the changelog entry to use "ID" instead of "id".
Revises text for "null" value to match other field descriptions
in these stream/subscription objects.
We want to make it easier to find stream details such as creator,
creation date and stream id. The commit replaces the "Email address"
section in General tab of stream overlay with a new section called
"Stream details", "Email address" is now a field in this section.
If the stream does not have a creator, we only show the stream creation
date in creation details.
Fixes: #25648.
Adds nullable creator field, containing a reference to the user who
created the stream. When creating a stream, acting user is set as
the creator of the stream. Since API calls to create streams always
have an acting user, this field should always be set when streams
are created using the API.
Because streams can be created with no acting user, this field is
nullable. We try to backfill existing streams using RealmAuditLog table,
but not all streams are guaranteed to have a recorded create log. Thus
this new field is left null when it cannot be backfilled. We also set
this field to null when the creator user is deleted.
This commit adds an option to the advanced section of
Preferences settings, that would allow users to choose
whether to receive typing notifications from other
users.
Fixes#29642
In commit 32d5b4fe3e, the channel and channels operators were
documented in the API docs. This bumps the API version to match
those changes.
Also, cleans up one Changes note from the same commit noted above.
Documents the addition of "channel" and "channels" as operators for
search/narrow filters, noting that they are aliases of the "stream"
and "streams" operators.
This change does not yet deprecate the "stream" and "streams"
operators.
Part of stream to channel rename project.
For endpoints with a type parameter to indicate whether a message is
a direct or stream message, adds support for passing "channel" as a
value for stream messages.

Adds "/invites/multiuse" endpoint to the API documentation.
Creates a shared schema for the invite_as and invite_expires_in_minutes
parameters that are the same for the "POST /invites" endpoint.
Also, updates the response documented for the "GET /invites" endpoint
to match the information in the "POST /invites" and "/invites/multiuse"
documentation.
Adds "channel" to the `stream_wildcards` frozenset for stream
wildcard notifications on the backend/server.
Updates frontend/web-app to handle "channel" as the other stream
wildcards are handled in the typeahead and composebox modules.
Updates the API version and documentation for the addition of
"channel" as a wildcard mention. But does not change any of the
functionailty of (or deprecate) the "stream" wildcard at this
point.
Part of project to rename "stream" to "channel".
Adds a "Message formatting" article to the API documentation. To
start, the article is a changelog of updates to markup features for
messages, with the idea being that it can be expanded to further
describe and document Zulip's markup features in future iterations.
Previously, users were allowed to signup or change their names to
those which already existed in the realm.
This commit adds an Organization Permission, that shall enforce
users to use unique names while signing up or changing their
names. If a same or normalized full name is found in realm,
then a validation error is thrown.
Fixes#7830.
Revises section to use headers for the possible parameters so that
they can be linked to directly from other documentation pages.
Updates base URL text to read more clearly when rendered.
Restructures the integration documentation pages to use a style
that's more similar to the help center documentation, with an
instruction block for setting up the integration, and sections
for additional configuration information and related documentation
links.
Updates the doc pages for the airbrake, azuredevops and gitlab
integrations as examples of the updated style.
Also updates the URL specification section of the incoming webhook
overview in the API documentation so that the documented URL
parameters can be linked to directly in the integration doc pages.

Links to the available message flag table in the feature level 224
changelog entry, as there are relevant **Changes** notes for this
feature level in that part of the API documentation.
Updates the order and formatting of these new and deprecated flags
in the available flags table. Also, adds a link to the topic
wildcard mentions section of the help center documentation.
Makes small clean ups to the changes notes for this feature level,
as well as the changelog entry itself.
The original commit for these feature level 224 API changes was
c597de6a1d.
This commit adds a realm-level setting named
'zulip_update_announcements_stream' that configures the
stream to which zulip updates should be posted.
Fixes part of #28604.
- Updates API docs that have numbered instructions to use the
`{start_tabs}` formatting we use in the help center.
- Cleans up formatting and revises documentation that shouldn't
be formatted as a numbered instructions block.
- Cross-links related articles.
Fixes#28876.
- Adds instructions for downloading a zuliprc file for a bot or for
yourself.
- Updates the button label to "Download zuliprc", since that's the
filename it downloads.
Fixes#28881.
This commit renames the realm-level setting
'signup_notifications_stream' to 'signup_announcements_stream'.
The new name reflects better what the setting does.
This commit renames the realm-level setting 'notifications_stream'
to 'new_stream_announcements_stream'.
The new name reflects better what the setting does.
- Updates incoming webhooks overview and walkthrough to be consistent
with the `zerver/webhooks/` codebase.
- Tweaks the documentation for better readability.
Adds a set of excluded endpoints for the test of generated curl
examples in the API documentation.
Currently, only the `api/test-notify` endpoint is excluded since
there would need to be a push notification bouncer set up to test
that generated curl example.
Adds `user.realm.string_id` as the realm name to the base payload
for notifications. Uses this realm name in the body of the alert
in the `apns_data`.
Changes the event string from "test-by-device-token" to "test".
Fixes#28075.
Earlier, the event sent when an onboarding step (hotspot till now)
is marked as read generated an event with type='hotspots' and
'hotspots' named array in it.
This commit renames the type to 'onboarding_steps' and the array
to 'onboarding_steps' to reflect the fact that it'll also contain
data for elements other than hotspots.
This commit adds a new endpoint 'users/me/onboarding_steps'
deprecating the older 'users/me/hotspots' to mark hotspot as read.
We also renamed the view `mark_hotspot_as_read` to
`mark_onboarding_step_as_read`.
Reason: Our plan is to make this endpoint flexible to support
other types of UI elements not just restricted to hotspots.
Adds a tip to the section on webhook URLs in the incoming webhook
overview and to the section on stream and user IDs in the construct
a narrow documentation. The tip links to relevant articles in the
help center.
Part of work on #19067.
This commit introduces non-intro hotspots.
They are a bit different than intro hotspots in the
following ways:
* All the non-intro hotspots are sent at once instead of
sending them one by one like intro hotspots.
* They only activate when a specific event occurs,
unlike intro hotspot where they activate after the
previous hotspot is read.
Now, the topic wildcard mention follows the following
rules:
* If the topic has less than 15 participants , anyone
can use @ topic mentions.
* For more than 15, the org setting 'wildcard_mention_policy'
determines who can use @ topic mentions.
Earlier, topic wildcard mentions followed the same restriction
as stream wildcard mentions, which was incorrect.
Fixes part of #27700.
This commit adds code to send "realm_user/remove" event
when a guest user loses access to a user due to the user
being unsubscribed from one or more streams.
This commit adds code to send user creation events to
guests who gain access to new subscribers and to the
new guest subscribers who gain access to existing
stream subscribers.
The presence and user status update events are only sent to accessible
users, i.e. guests do not receive presence and user status updates for
users they cannot access.
This commit adds code to make sure that update events for changing
a user's role, email, etc. are not sent to guests who cannot access
the modified user.
This commit adds a new option 'DMs, mentions, and followed topics'
to 'desktop_icon_count_display' setting.
The total unread count of DMs, mentions, and followed topics appears
in desktop sidebar and browser tab when this option is configured.
Some existing options are relabeled and renumbered. We finally have:
* All unread messages
* DMs, mentions, and followed topics
* DMs and mentions
* None
Fixes#27503.
While the server implementation has accepted this value for a few
months as part of building the feature, following topics was not a
fully supported feature of the Zulip server before
3f2ab44f94, just before feature
level 219.
So that's probably the correct level to document as the first feature
level at which we recommend that clients supporting the followed
topics feature process the value.
This commit adds new API endpoint to get stream email which is
used by the web-app as well to get the email when a user tries
to open the stream email modal.
The stream email is returned only to the users who have access
to it. Specifically for private streams only subscribed users
have access to its email. And for public streams, all non-guest
users and only subscribed guests have access to its email.
All users can access email of web-public streams.
This commit removes "email_address" field from Subscription objects
and we would instead a new endpoint in next commit to get email
address for stream with proper access check.
This change also fixes the bug where we would include email address
for the unsubscribed private stream as well when user did not have
permission to send message to the stream, and having email allowed
the unsubscribed user to send message to the stream.
Note that the unsubscribed user can still send message to the stream
if the user had noted down the email before being unsubscribed
and the stream token is not changed after unsubscribing the user.
This commit adds new setting for controlling who can access
all users in the realm which would have "Everyone" and
"Members only" option.
Fixes part of #10970.
Rename the existing 'wildcard_mentioned' flag to
'stream_wildcard_mentioned'.
The 'wildcard_mentioned' flag is deprecated and exists for
backwards compatibility.
We have two separate flags for stream and topic wildcard mentions,
i.e., 'stream_wildcard_mentioned' and 'topic_wildcard_mentioned',
respectively.
* stream wildcard mentions: `@all`, `@everyone`, and `@stream`
* topic wildcard mentions: `@topic`
The `wildcard_mentioned` flag is included in the events and
API response if either `stream_wildcard_mentioned` or
`topic_wildcard_mentioned` is set.
